Chief Conductor Mark Wigglesworth will lead us through an unmissable performance of Mozart’s Requiem. This monumental work unfolds with breathtaking intensity, as the full orchestra and chorus come together in a grand choral embrace. The evening opens with Strauss’s Metamorphosen, a song like work for solo strings alone, in which soaring melodies reflect a nostalgia for the passion of the 19th century before a conclusion that touches on the tragedies of the 20th. We are urged to remember our history if we seek to influence our future.
